Dwarven passive racial useless in shadowlands

Community General Discussion

For those who don’t know archeology is being abandoned. The secondary profession will not be part of Shadowlands.

This makes the dwarven racial Explorer useless in the next expansion.

So if you are undecided on chosen dwarf just know the passive racials wont do anything for you.

Was curious to if this was true because I hadn’t heard, and yeah, here’s a source:

I had no idea prior to seeing this.

I’ve always thought archaeology was a lame profession anyway. Give the Dwarves a different racial.

Yeah give the dwarves a different racial.

They could’ve just added new stuff elsewhere outside Shadowlands instead of being lazy. I feel like its going to go the way of first aid eventually though. Much easier than actually making it fun somehow.

I’m more offended they are leaving the racial in a useless state.

Give nightborne a racial that works for warriors and hunters first.

Like plus 1% arcane dame to all damage, not just spell damage getting a boost.

Or don’t. Being shorted on racials will give them the True Mag’har Experience.

Not that this really counts but the racial will still work if they dig in old content.

But their active is literally the best racial in the game for the first raid. So take your pick I guess.

Wait, this implies it was useful before…

I mean, I’m sure it’ll be reworked to something new.

I guess it’s just something to. Get some neat toys, pets and decent payout. Also reason to visit old zones which can be worth for visuals.

“If things change, we will let you know”.

Maybe they are looking into it but had no idea what direction it should go in, as it stands its a pretty lackluster profession. First aid was removed and caked into tailoring, i hope fishing gets caked into cooking and archology needs a revamp.

It could be reworked to something old.
Didn’t that racial used to give the ability to track treasure chests? Give them that for flavor.

Hidden chests within zones/instances that are only available after doing a profession thing? I like it.
